The requirements for this course are:

• A basic knowledge of the Italian language
• download and print the PDF worksheets of the lessons with the symbol + STAMPA before starting them

That’ s how the course will look like:

• There will be 59 lectures. Each lecture will focus on a specific topic or on one or two sounds of the Italian language.
• The PDF worksheets (esercizi) include your homework and some exercises to be done while watching the videos.
• In case the exercises have to be done while watching the video,  you will find the symbol + STAMPA (print) after the lecture title and the sign VIDEO in the PDF worksheet. Please download and print those PDF worksheets before starting those lectures. The other PDF worksheets and exercises are to be done after watching the lecture. 
• The PDF worksheets also provide the solutions to the exercises and at the end of some lectures rules for the pronunciation.
• Download the lectures to learn when and where you want.

At the end of this course, students will be able to…

• Pronounce clearly each sound of the Italian language thanks to audio samples to listen and repeat
• Articulate  each sound of the Italian language with videos of the shape of my mouth to mimic
• Read and understand the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) symbols of the Italian language
• Articulate sounds difficult to pronounce for non-native Italian speakers
• Distinguish  sounds thanks to discrimination exercises
• Use the rules of the Italian pronunciation they have learned

I designed this course for...

• Singers, orchestra and chior conductors, accompanists and every musician in need to improve the Italian pronunciation to become a better performer.
• Italian learners who want to speak Italian more clearly.

The lessons will be in Italian but don’t worry: the instructions are very easy and will guide you step-by-step in the learning process. You’ll get used to it very soon!                                       

Happy learning!
